Barr Group articles

The embedded systems experts, Barr Group, today released an update of the influential Embedded C Coding Standard. Also known as BARR-C:2018, the latest version of the company’s stylistic coding rules helps embedded system designers reduce defects in firmware written in C and C++.

Barr Group will be bringing its popular 'Embedded Software Boot Camp' and brand new 'Best Practices for Designing Safe & Secure Embedded Systems' courses to Munich, Germany, in May and June respectively. These courses teach some of the embedded systems industry’s best practices that are essential for designing safer, more secure devices.

With the aim of helping organisations build safer, more reliable and more secure embedded systems, Barr Group has conducted its third annual Embedded Systems Safety & Security Survey. Electronic Specifier Editor Joe Bush caught up with CEO, Andrew Girson, at the embedded world exhibition (where Barr Group announced the survey’s findings), to find out more.

The Spring 2017 public training calendar for embedded systems engineers and managers has been announced by Barr Group. During this season, Barr Group will be offering three 'Boot Camp' courses on embedded software, embedded Android and embedded security.

During the week of 24th–28th October 2016, Barr Group, the embedded systems experts, will be hosting three in-depth, specialised training courses in the downtown city centre of Munich, Germany. Aimed at making engineers better able to create safer and more secure code, these public courses comprise a new two-day “Reliable Multithreaded Programming” course, a new one-day course on the “Top 10 Ways to Design Safer Embedded Software,” and Barr Group’s popular two-day course on “Best Practices for Securing Embedded Systems.”

Barr Group is hosting a free webinar about embedded systems design that will examine best practices for stack management. Nigel Jones, Principal Engineer, Barr Group, will host the one-hour live online webinar, titled How to Prevent and Detect Stack Overflow, on 7th September, 2016 at 1:00 pm (EDT).

Experts have announced a new one-day training course to help engineers and software development teams build safe, reliable, and secure embedded products. The new course, 'Top 10 Ways to Design Safer Embedded Software', focuses exclusively on valuable techniques that engineers should use to create safer product designs.

Highlighting the need for increased focus on safety and security, Barr Group has announced key findings from its 2016 Embedded Systems Safety & Security Survey. The survey incorporates complete responses from more than 2,400 qualified engineers, 46% from North America, 33% from Europe and 11% from Asia. Such a large, worldwide response makes this independent survey the first truly comprehensive look at the state of safety-critical and security-aware engineering design practices for the devices that drive business and industry worldwide.

Barr Group is pleased to introduce the Embedded Security Boot Camp, the newest entry in its respected Boot Camp Series of embedded systems training courses. The first offering of this new course will be in California on May 6-10, 2013.
